The BEST Insurance for Self Build Camper Van Conversions | UK

Rolling with the Best: Why Sterling Insurance Wins the Game for Camper Vans!

Hey fellow road trippers! If you're like me, living the camper van life, you know that finding the right insurance is stressful and quite frankly, mind boggling.

After digging around the camper van insurance world for many years, I've got to spill the beans—Sterling Insurance is where it's at, especially for those of us with self-built van conversions. Let me break down why Sterling is the GOAT camper van insurance.

My Story: When I first started my camper van journey in 2013 (that makes me feel old) the insurance options were overwhelming. I needed coverage that not only protected my four-wheeled home but also vibed with the uniqueness of camper van living. I didn’t find it and got whatever I could find. But then a couple of years ago I stumbled across Sterling Insurance.

I’ve been a loyal customer of Sterling insurance since then and I’m now using them to insure my new (not so tiny) tiny home on wheels.

Here’s a couple of reasons why i’ll always choose Sterling over any other:

  • Sterling Insurance goes above and beyond with coverage. Whether it’s full time van living, insuring your weekend warrior wagon or even Mother Nature throwing a tantrum, Sterling's got your back. The over the phone explanations about the coverage made me feel really confident about exactly what I was getting (whereas I’m usually left pretty confused about what i’ve just heard).

  • What sets Sterling apart is their knack for tailoring policies to fit your camper van like a glove. Whether you're rolling in a factory-made beauty or a DIY masterpiece, Sterling Insurance makes sure your unique needs are met.

  • Sterling Insurance doesn't just tolerate self-built van conversions; they celebrate them! Most insurance folks run for the hills when they hear "DIY," but not Sterling. They get that your blood, sweat, and maybe a few tears went into that conversion, and they've got your back.

  • Life on the road is all about flexibility, and Sterling gets it. Need to make changes? No problem. And their support team are so friendly, it doesn’t make me nervous to make a call (usually I get cold sweats just thinking about it)

Breakdown Cover

Sterling Insurance provides essential breakdown cover catering to both UK and European travel. Road trips can be unpredictable, breakdowns are an inevitable concern. Sterling Insurance addresses this by offering coverage, ensuring efficient assistance and minimal disruptions during unexpected issues.

We have experienced first hand how a vehicle breakdown can effect a trip. Our breakdown in Albania is something we’ll never forget. We can look back and laugh now but at the time, it felt like everything was crashing down all around us. Breakdown cover is essential and we would never travel without it.

Knowing that there’s someone ready to help you on the other side of the phone can be the difference between a ruined trip and a saved one.

Sterling Insurance is my ride-or-die for camper van coverage. Whether you're a seasoned road tripper or just getting started, these guys know how to keep your wheels turning and your home sweet home safe.
